I jumped on the Insta hun bandwagon and bought some of the blonde chocolate spread. It’s lovely but very sickly and I have no idea what to use it for (apart from eating straight from the jar with a spoon) 🤣

This thread is everything !! I love M&S , we are hopefully moving to a town with one in walking distance from our new house … honestly it was a factor in its purchase 🤣

I’ve just placed an Ocado order with some of your recs !

I haven’t seen some of my faves recommended so I suggest you all try:

- honey bbq whole grain crisps .. they are insane
- roasted ham crisps … oh my god , so good
- best ever burgers … they are so delicious I get them and freeze them every time we are in ! Never had a better supermarket burger
- truffle cream cheese - hard to come by and a bit expensive but it is really really tasty , either just on a bagel or riveta or stirred through pasta as a sauce

Is it just me or do you or anyone else notice how many food products on Ocado's website are poorly rated? I never understood it. I've bought stuff from there before that was something like 3 stars, yet tasted good to me personally. I swear some people just want to moan for the sake of moaning.

Yeah I have , it’s weird … I haven’t ever left a review for any food I’ve bought online , but probably only would if it was really bad .. must just be the moaners dragging the score down

I can't get over how many say 'I was given this to try' ... I don't think I've ever been given anything to try !!!

Just had my first M&S visit in months ❤
Got bakery cookies and a pack of pistachio cookies (think I saw them recommended here?), a sundried tomato salad and a samosa for my dinner, and a two pack of individual choc sponge puddings!
Got a Sicilian lemon cheesecake slice for around €1 on yellow sticker for my Mum.
Also found hideously expensive grainless granola - €6.80 a bag - but it's full of all my favourite things and I'm worth it so 🤷‍♀️ coconut, freeze-dried berries, nuts etc. I'll have a spoonful of it with my super exciting bitesize shredded wheat (I know, the glamour)
That €20 Italian Dine In offer is savage value - must clear out the freezer before my next visit.
Beetroot crisps are back (big in the 90s) and this time they're chutney flavour. Interesting.
Got a magnolia linen, room and body spray, a facial cleanser and a new pair of defiantly unfashionable skinny jeans to get me through winter, too.

Am I the only one who doesn't find M&S food appealing?

Their vegetables don't taste like anything and look like plastic most times. Their fish is decent, but nothing special.

I tried one of their green soups once, it was absolutely awful.

I don't know - their food is overrated. Besides, they need to lay off the plastic packaging on everything.
 
Thought I would share my bargains today, lemon cake in a jar for £1.50 and these chocolate golden snitches reduced from £6 to 75p! and they are in date until November.

I wonder if you could make a quick pud by mixing some with some cream cheese and putting it in a liitle pot on top of some crushed biscuits. Top it with a berry of some sort and you’ve got an instant cheesecake.

I think you're on the wrong thread and need to go wash your mouth out 🤣🤣
